The Mid-Autumn Festival | Do the Dragon Dance | {Variable Aphro}

[healsforjustice]

There was nothing wrong in offering to help people, in fact, to Amelia, it was in the best interest of everyone to try and be as kind as possible. After all that is what good and just people did right? Still, it seemed that someone was trying to push at her limits, just to see how far she would go to fulfil that ideal

Hope this is alright with you

Of course, traditionally, a dragon in this sort of festival requires at least two people. And the Hotel traditionally likes giving certain kinds of shows to people who ask.

That would explain why, a couple of minutes after Amelia, another confused and mostly naked woman is apparently shoved through the door. The blue-haired girl, painted with elegant and sweeping scales that match her hair color, is quick to try and cover herself and turn around toward the door.

"W-wait, I'm not really sure about this! You didn't say there was..."

She turns around to see the person she wasn't told about - Amelia - and blushes. "Oh, y-you're already here. Um, hello."

It is, should be fun~

The princess could only gawp a moment as someone tumbled through the door, calling out protested. Considering that she too was covered in paint, it was fairly easy to figure out there was to be more to this than Amelia dancing for the other female.

"That's right, though I admit I'm a bit confused." she replied, hoping that her reason would be rather obvious.

"W-well, apparently we're both supposed to dance..." Kusuha explains lamely. "Um, I think whoever it was decided he wanted to watch two girls instead of one...um, not that way! I hope."

She shakes her head and takes a deep breath to clear out some of the embarrassment that was making her stumble over her words. "Anyway, before we get started, my name is Kusuha! Um, I know maybe one or two ceremonial dances for various reasons, but I've never done them with someone..."

Swallowing, the healer sighed; obviously she should have known better than to think there wouldn't be a catch. Still, at the very least, her fellow dancer seemed nice.

"It's nice to meet you Miss Kusuha. I'm Amelia." she replied, offering a soft smile. "And you don't need to worry, at the very least you know some dances. I'm going into this rather blind."

"This hotel...oh, it's nice to meet you too, Amelia!"

Kusuha sighs. "I-I don't think they gave us time to practice, either. Um, I'm just going to do what I normally do. Do you think you can just copy me? I don't know how good it'll look since it's more for magic than looking good which...'magic' probably sounds stupid, b-but it's the shortest explanation..."

Kusuha's standing there stammering this all out, looking like she wishes she had clothing to fidget with in her hands, but as all she's got is underwear, she settles for just wringing them.

"I should be able to. I've been made to dance before without any knowledge, though since it's the hotel, often the purpose isn't in the best taste." Amelia replied, running a hand through her hair, only stopping at the last part of the girl's sentence. Glancing over, she managed a warm, eager smile.

"It doesn't sound stupid, I know magic myself." she smiled in reassurance, moving over to pat Kusuha on the shoulder. "Don't worry, the sooner we get through this, the sooner we're done, okay?"
